  1. SQL SQL stands for Structured Query Language SQL allows you to access a database SQL is an ANSI standard computer language SQL can execute queries against a database SQL can retrieve data from a database SQL can insert new records in a database SQL can delete records from a database SQL can update records in a database

  2. History • Was designed and implemented by IBM Research (1986) • A joint with American National standards Institute (ANSI) and International Standards Organization (ISO) led to the standard version of SQL-86 • A revised and expanded in 1992 called SQL-92. • Most recent is now SQL-99

  3. Definitions and Data Types • Uses terms table, rows, columns for the formal relational model terms relations, tuple, and attribute. • An SQL schema is identified by a schema name, including authorization identifier to indicate user who owns it and descriptions for each element. • Schema elements include tables, constraints, views, domains, and other constructs • Catalog – a named collection of schemas in an SQL environment

  4. Common Data Types • char (size) – Fixed length character string. Size is specified in parenthesis. Max 255 bytes. • varchar (size) – Variable-length character string. Max size is specified in parenthesis. • number (size) – Number value with a max number of column digits specified in parenthesis. • date – Date value • number (size, d) – Number value with a max number of digits of “size” total, with a max number of “d” digits to the right of the decimal.

  5. Creating Tables • Create Table – used to specify a new relation by giving it a name, and attributes with initial constraints. • Example: CREATE TABLE company.employee … • Company is the schema name • Employee is the relation name

  6. Create table myemployees (firstname varchar(30), lastname varchar(30), title varchar (30), age number(2), salary number(8, 2)); Creates a table called myemployees First name, last name, and title allows 30 characters each. Age is allowed 2 digits Salary is allowed 8 digits with 2 decimals Creating a Table

  7. Other Functions • Select – allows you to select a certain and retrieve data specified. • Example: Select “column1” From “TableName” Where “condition”; • Select column 1 from the TableName with the following condition.

  8. Insert into “tablename” (first_column, … last_column) values (first_value,…last_value); Insert into employee (first, last, age, address, city, state) values (‘James’, ‘Tran’, 23, ‘1111 1st street’, ‘San Jose’, ‘California’); Inserts into specified table name Specify all columns inserting to separated by a comma. Values inserted are specified afterwards Strings enclosed in single quotes, numbers are not. Insertion

  9. update “tablename” set “columnname” = “newvalue” [,”nextcolumn” = “newvalue2”…] where “columnname” OPERATOR “value” [and | or “column” OPERATOR “value”]; **[ ] = optional Update the specified table name Set the column specified with new value Add in conditionals if needed Optional values and input add [ ] Updating

  10. delete from “tablename” where “columnname” OPERATOR “value” [and | or “column” OPERATOR “value”]; [ ] = optional Delete a certain table, column, row, etc. Operator meaning >,<,=, etc… Deleting

  11. Drop • Dropping a table removes all rows and definitions. • Example: Drop table “TableName”

  12. Ordering • SQL allows you to order elements in a table. • Example: orders by alphabetical select distinctcustomer-name fromborrower, loan whereborrower.loan-number = loan.loan-number and branch-name = ‘Perryridge’ order bycustomer-name

  13. Evaluation of GroupBy with Having

  14. Aggregates • More functions that allow you to operate on sets. • COUNT, SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN • Produces numbers, not tables. • Not part of relational algebra • Example: Select MAX (Age) From Employee E

  15. Grouping • Sometimes we want to apply aggregate functions to subgroups of tuples in a relation. • Such as finding the average salary of employees in each department or the number of employees that are working on each project. • SQL has a GROUP BY clause that allows for specific grouping of attributes

  16. Grouping Cont • Example: • SELECT Dno, COUNT(*), AVG (Salary) FROM EMPLOYEE GROUP BY Dno; • The EMPLOYEE tuples are partitioned into groups, each group having the same value for the grouping attribute Dno. • Then the COUNT and AVG functions are applied to each group.

  17. b) T T a) c) R S R(A) EXCEPT ALL S(A) d) T R(A) INTERSECT S(A) Two tables SQL Multiset Operations R(A) UNION ALL S(A)

  18. Nested Queries List all courses that were not taught in S2000 • SELECT C.CrsName • FROM Course C • WHERE C.CrsCode NOT IN • (SELECT T.CrsCode --subquery • FROM Teaching T • WHERE T.Sem = ‘S2000’) Evaluation strategy: subquery evaluated once to produces set of courses taught in S2000. Each row (as C) tested against this set.
